Ms Yingluck Shinawatra, Prime Minister of Thailand (who had her state visited to New Zealand) was awarded Honorary Doctorate Degree by the Auckland University of Technology for being Thailand's first female prime minister on March 23, 2013. 

We would like to express our congratulations to PM Yingluck who has worked hard for one and a half year since she was elected with landslide votes. Well, she is so popular and beloved prime minister because she is not such a NATO (No Action, Talk Only) politician like the "Special Man" who was "in the Office" before her.   

Some antiShinawatra people in Thailand not only hate Thaksin Shinawatra, the former Prime Minister of Thailand, but being against all affairs that relate to him. Those people conclude that all about Thaksin are so worst including his youngest sister, Ms Yingluck Shinawatra who graduated from Chiengmai University (Thailand) and Texas State University (USA). While some conservative right-wing extremists in Thailand chorus  "E-ngo,  E-ngo .. or Stupid Woman, Stupid Woman". 

On the other hand other states admire her. Because she was elected Prime Minister of Thailand by Thai people, so she is of the people and she would do all for the people according to her party, Pheu Thai (for Thai).  New Zealand is one of the democratic state and be the top rank of corruption free (also Singapore and Denmark) and her people are well educated. New Zealand respect to the first female premier of Thailand. Yes the top level university of this country, Auckland University of Technology, honored her with a doctorate degree.
